Online timer
An online timer counts down a duration you set, not a calendar date. Five minutes is readable with scripting off. Starting, pausing and ticking need a script because a timer is a clock. Loop repeats the same duration. The stopwatch counts up. It runs only while this page is open. This is not the holiday countdown page.
Set a duration
Days to a holiday live on countdown. Adding clock times lives on the hours calculator.
Online timer FAQ
Does the timer run without JavaScript?
Five minutes is readable in the HTML. Starting, pausing, ticking, looping and the stopwatch need a script because a timer is a clock, not a calendar date.
What is the default?
Five minutes. Presets fill hours, minutes and seconds. Loop repeats the same duration when it hits zero. It only runs while this page is open.
Is this the holiday countdown?
No. Countdown counts whole days, and with scripting a clock, to a UTC calendar datetime. This page is a duration you start yourself. Hours and time calculators add clock times; they do not tick.
What does the stopwatch do?
It counts up from zero. Lap records the elapsed time without stopping the clock. Laps, save, and print need scripting.
